All of This for You

This past Saturday I had the whole day to myself because my son was on a sledding trip with a friend and my husband was working. So I hooked my iPod up to the stereo and put my Christian playlist on shuffle. At one point...

Sharing the Love that Found Us

One of my favorite Christian bands is relatively new on the Christian music scene in America, but was playing for Christ for four years in Australia before moving to Atlanta, Georgia in 2008. I first heard them when they opened for Third Day after releasing...

In Whom Can We Trust?

Music Monday Extra – Love Rule Today

For Martin Luther King Jr. Day, I thought this video would be a nice Music Monday Extra. Dr. King’s dream would be a reality if all the world would follow the advice of this song by Revive and let Love Rule Today. I tried to...

The entirety of human existence from Adam to the end of time is a beautiful needlepoint tapestry. God is the Master Weaver. We might think we are in control of the tapestry, or at least our little corner of it, but we really aren’t. You...

A Heart Longing for Eternity

This morning I was listening to my Christian music playlist on my iPod while I was getting ready for the day. A song I have only heard a few times came on and at first I didn’t recognize it. It is by the Australian Christian...
